Bible trust
Of course you can trust the Bible in absolutivity. You simply determine that what was written is truth in different forms. The story of Jonah is truth for what it is meant to convey. To me it means that you can't run from God when he has his eye on you and nothing is completely lost (Nineveh) until it is completely lost (Sodom).
What part of this is a lie?
I'm not necessarily speaking to you, Almeyda. You have a fine ability to reason abstractly.

Science book
The bible is actually filled with science. I'm surprised you have not noticed. From strategies for war, to modernizing living conditions, it is all there. A good example would be Hezekiah's method of bringing water into the city (Discovery Channel: Technology in the Bible - this program speaks of many other examples). As for history, start at the beginning of Daniel and then read Revelation. Both books are filled with history and accurate accounts of each and every world empire starting with Babylon all the way to Rome. Accurate to a tittle on an 'i'.
A good source for study would be Uriah Smith's 'Daniel and the Revelation, a book.
